Hi Lautrec,

This gave me idea on what eventually worked.
What I used a variation of what you have and the command sequence from

First updated without full cl-update

# cl-update --sync-only && emerge -1O python:3.9 && emerge -1O glibc && emerge -1O portage

then followed the editing /etc/locale.gen and /etc/env.d/02locale
editing /etc/locale.gen - (AU is my locale, adjust the locale for your location)

en_AU.UTF-8 UTF-8

editing /etc/env.d/02locale

LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_ALL=""

updated locale and checked result

# locale-gen
# locale -a
  C
  C.utf8
  POSIX
  en_AU.utf8

to finally get a clean cl-update running!
thank you!
